One of the best ways to gather information about a program is to gain access to the thoughts, feelings and experiences of someone who has lived it.
Internship Development sat down with SU Student Desiree Johnson, a senior communication studies
major, to find out what it was really like interning with the GLCA New York Arts Program. |

Who did you intern with in NYC?
D.J-“Glamour Magazine
in the Conde Nast building on Times Square.”What surprised you about the internship?
D.J.-“What surprised me was the sheer amount of work that is behind the scenes in the fashion
department. Out of all the departments, I would say the fashion department puts in the most amount of work time outside the office.” What was most rewarding?
D.J-“Simply being a part of the
magazine process and seeing how my department worked with others to get it all done by the deadline. Plus it was fun to see the magazine being formed before even the subscribers saw it!”
What was the best part of your internship?
D.J-“Definitely living in the city of New York. The house the GLCA program provides is in the center of Manhattan and close to just about everything.”
Is there one event that you will remember forever?
D.J.- “Absolutely! I earned the opportunity to work as a fashion assistant and was able to meet and dress John Legend, Josh Hartnett, and the 4 main
actors from NBC’s Saturday Night Live. |
